I have never been able to wrap my head around why
so many are afraid of stalls in the Lancairs.
If they are as bad as many believe, then something
needs to be done to the airframe to fix the problem.
. . . like stall strips . . . which don't affect
performance . . .
If there is no problem . . . then people need to
learn how to fly them and quit being a wuus about stalls.

Bill,
Talk to Jeff. I would agree with your stall
ideas in just about any airplanes other than Lancairs. They are
different...very different from other airplane types and very different among
samples of the same Lancair type. Neither of my Lancairs, the 320 or the IV,
give any warning at all before a stall. No buffett, no burble...nothing. If
you do a full stall in a IV plan for a break that will be hard and abrupt.
Have you actually stalled your Lancair?
Please speak to Jeff privately. He has
investigated far too many Lancair accidents to pass on his good
advice.

Bill,
I respectfully disagree with just about everything you are saying here.
Would you please contact me offline or give me you number so I can call
you?
